Some serious losers… sure think they are cool send them to San Quentin where they get a full reality check.
I would like to know the name of the gang. Guesses?
Little Rascals
bring back the chain gang
6ix9ines entourage.
Who ?
Gang name is losers from Ukiah bunch of punk wannabees
No, these are actual, bonafied punks.
When the only way to stand tall among your peers is to hang with bottom feeders. It’s pretty sorry.
They should try to stand tall among taller people.
If they can’t name at least three original punk bands they’re not punks!
Who do you think “punk bands” were named after? Original punk kids. The bands didn’t originate the term.
And who cares about punk rock, anyway!? Lol, not even punks:
my friend’s car was broken into in the ’80’s, and they took all the valuables — and threw the punk tapes into the ditch. Even the punks didn’t want it. It was classic.
They shouldn’t be calling them juveniles. They know right from wrong. Treat them as adults. they’ve been around the block.
In Ukiah it’s either Nortenos or skinheads. This kids doesn’t exactly look like a Norteno but there have been white dudes in their mix before.
$900 a lb? Must be indo-mendo!
The dream is still alive! Get your Canadian connection today!
Advocating sexual violence against children? Kym please block this loser.
You get away with this kind of suggestion but I get on the naughty list by suggesting hanging by gonads???!!!
Grower ( pre robbery): fuck the police brah! me make a Lotta money ,me no pay tax , me collect the medi cal and the food stamps, me like vacations to Costa Rica with me douchey brahs, me buy me girlfriend electric car to get discount electricity then me lie and say me carpenter instead of grower.Me badass, check out me full sleeve tattoo brah.(smug look and Jamaican accent)
Grower (post robbery): please help me officer , I was robbed by some bad people, I’m completely innocent! I pooped my pants.
Spot on!!!!!
Can’t let your little brother set up shady after school deals for you, at 25 you should start getting pretty sick of kids as I’m sure this guy is.
I can’t stop laughing.
Another funny – April 1830:
Judge Peck, District Judge of Missouri, was impeached for abuse of his judicial power in punishing Mr. Lawless, an attorney, for contempt.
👍🏾👍🏾
He’s gonna be so bummed if jail doesn’t accommodate his vegan diet.
Nice to see kids doing something constructive – skim some cash off an illegal weed sale. Too many kids sit around staring at their phones.
$900 for a bow is robbery! Is that the price you get for selling to kids? The sellers should be charged with felony theft. Selling to 15 year olds. Stay classy black market, stay classy.
Yes! Stay classy black market, stay classy.
Given the various objects found in that car these clowns were prepared to seriously hurt someone if they didn’t get their way.
Convict and sentence ’em so it hurts.
And toss the 18 year old in the army for 4 years. Let boot camp straighten him out a little.
When I was a lad that was probably what would happen. Ya wanna hurt somebody? Well kid you just lucked out ’cause you’re going to ‘Nam. And maybe you’ll come back alive…
They don’t take trash.
In the liberal world selling a pound of weed to kids is seen as “good”..
Is it any wonder things went south?
I don’t know about the ‘liberal’ world, but i agree with you reality, selling to teenagers is one of those known, unspoken rules that if crossed is bad mojo. As is calling the revenue generators on a neighbor – the anonymous type.
its just a rob thing
carpet cutters? is this like a box cutter? or a razor knife? or is it some tool special to cutting carpet like a bloody mary? or is it a pair of scissors?
Send him to the Mandingo room.
Given the objects in that van when they were stopped it was pretty clear they were prepared to hurt someone and possibly badly.
When I was a lad Mr Thing would have two options. Jail or the US army and shipped off to ‘Nam. With his current attitude the country might have been better had he come back in a bag.
The kids would have ended up in “Juvie” which in Pennsylvania was definitely no walk in the park. After all, that is the state that gave us the word penitentiary. They worked hard to make people like this truly regret they ever thought of committing the crime that landed them there in the first place.
Now we have to figure out a way to make the punishment for crap like this actually produce a good for society besides just keeping them off the streets for a couple years. California’s con crews are a great start, now what can we do with minors.
Give the minors hemp seeds – lots of hemp seeds, and put them to work in the fields.

Virgin neck line just screaming for tattoos, update at his next arrest.
What about the gun, no charges?
2A baby! The right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. This is a probation violation at best. They’ll be back at it by the weekend.
Hey….it’s a Thing….

Little Baby Punk wanna be!
Did anyone here notice that Thing was in jail for only 6 hour 40 min…No bail posted either, as required.
(11/15 10 p.m. – 11/16 4:45 a.m.) According to the data on the Sheriffs website, there was no bail posted.
bail is not required. they can release you on your own recognizance which means you promise to appear in court on the date set. remember supposedly innocent until PROVEN guilty IN a court of law
In a court of competent jurisdiction. Law isn’t ever brought up unless a belligerent claimant does it himself.
Otherwise, it’s only a financial transaction.
So……..you can rob someone with a gun and be out in a few hours. I’d like our Mendo Sheriff to explain that one……this is why people commit these robberies….there’s no punishment, more like a reward system.
So………its not like they were robbing a legitimate business.
